Is yellow discharge after postpartum bleeding normal?

[nesik]

Hello ladies, its a tmi question, sorry about that but I need to know if its normal. I'm 8 weeks postpartum c-section, my bleeding stopped and started a couple of times till it stopped completely at 7weeks 3days, then I started having an yellow greenish discharge, I know that creamy discharge is normal, its different color and different consistency, it has brownish old looking blood small clots sometimes, I waited for it to go away but it doesn't, now I'm worried that something is wrong with inside incisions, could I have an infection and not have any other symptoms? Did anybody have this kind of discharge? I don't know if I should contact my Dr or not, it have been going on for 4 days now, please help with advise if u can.

Nice to know he cares :)   My hubby frequently gets frustrated with me because I wait until I'm almost dying before I'll finally go see a doctor.
Glad to hear its nothing to be worried about.

Well I waited till Tuesday and the dischargw decreased but my husband literally yelled at me for not going to the doctor so I called and the triage nurse said I need to be seen, I had appointment this morning with NP and she said its normal, maybe just some kind of infection so she took some swabs and will call me in two days to let me know, so nothing serious, I'm relieved :)

How are things going?

Ok, I hope it will resolve on its own

Sounds like a plan. If you start running a fever or it starts to smell funny then get in to be seen sooner.

Thank u ladies for your advice, after searching online I'm even more unsure if I should call my Dr, lots of women have it around same time (2 months postpartum) and their doctors say its normal, women's system returning to its normal state to have babies again, lots of women have it and lots of women don't, I'll wait till Monday, hope it will be gone by then

I would call your doctor just to be on the safe side. Especially if it has an odd smell.
